Slide 1: Introduction

Slide 5: There are three types of researched based on purpose, theoretical, practical and action
research. Theoretical research is a logical exploration of a system of beliefs and assumptions, while
practical research refers to the building of knowledge useful to practice that. adheres to the basic
principles of scientific inquiry. But what we are going to tackle today is the action research. They are
linked to two approaches mainly the qualitative and quantitative methods. Quantitative research deals
with numbers and statistics, while qualitative research deals with words and meanings. Quantitative
methods allow you to test a hypothesis by systematically collecting and analyzing data, while qualitative
methods allow you to explore ideas and experiences in depth

Slide 10:

Learners: Action research provides efficient solutions to address learners’needs

Teachers: Action research powers professional growth. Action research is a powerful form of
teacher-driven professional development. ...
Schools: A cultivated action research approach diagnoses problems or weaknesses—whether
organizational, academic, or instructional and benefits a learning institution as a whole

District-Division based: It will help solve existing problems within the schools district or division in order
to improve the quality of education

Slide 14: In formulating titles we must remember these:

 Indicate accurately the subject and scope of the study.

 Avoid using abbreviations.
 Use words that create a positive impression and stimulate reader interest.
Slide 17: This slide shows the conceptual framework of action research, by accomplishing the research
agenda, we are able to performactions such as making of programs and activities. Through this we can
attain our targeted outcomes and achieve DepEd’s Mission and Vision

Slide 18: This model shows that research process goes in a spiral manner through these (or similar)
stages: you gather what you already know (make assumptions), you hypothesize, you test the
hypothesis, analyse results, critically appraise them, apply the results, adjust or change the assumptions,
and repeat.

Slide 24: A research hypothesis is a specific, clear, and testable proposition or predictive statement
about the possible outcome of a research study, they are based on limited evidence and serves as a
starting point for further investigation

Slide 29: Research questions must be coherent or possess coherence in order for the ideas to flow, it
must have definite objectives, academically honest and thorough. It must also follow appropriate
format. Good research questions seek to improve knowledge on an important topic, and are usually
narrow and specific
Slide 30: A variable in research simply refers to a person, place, thing, or phenomenon that you are
trying to measure in some way. The best way to understand the difference between a dependent and
independent variable is that the meaning of each is implied by what the words tell us about the variable
you are using. These variables drive the research process. A dependent variable is a variable whose
variations depend on another variable—usually the independent variable. An Independent variable is a
variable whose variations do not depend on another variable but the researcher experimenting

Slide 34: An action plan is a detailed plan outlining actions needed to reach one or more goals.
Alternatively, it can be defined as a "sequence of steps that must be taken, or activities that must be
performed well, for a strategy to succeed".
